Question of the Site.

Sir,— Like the bull inthe china shup, the Guardian seems bound to make a sen- sation about the new hotel, and like that vigorous animal, changes front and charges at a moment’s rotice from one hotel site to another, as if blinded to such a small con- sideration as reason. Its propusal of Hills borough Square asa site in preference to the Duuse property for the hetel isa mere imaginative impossibility, as the proposed building is one hundred and six: y feet wide and this measurment being exactly the same as the width of the Square, it is evi- dent that not very mach room will be lefi on the site either for trees or citizens after the completion of the building. I fancy that the ideal imagination of the residents in the vicinity would be surprised at the vistas some of them would enjuy of scullery windows and back entrances. [If the hotei is placed in Fairholm one serious objection will be the cutting down of a great number of the trees to make a foundation for such a large building. Thia, of course would change the whole character of the place from its present aspect, and would be an act of vandalism. It would also be impossitle to properly manage a large hotel without s thorough eystem of drainage.

The Guardian fairly owns that the Douse property has maoy minor advantages, bn: would be « bleak site in winter. Of course this would not refer to the interior of the building as it would be properly built and carefully heated, and as tothe situation being a bleak one in winter, it is the very opposite. In winter the oatlook over the harbor is always cheerfal, and the morning and sunset eff<cts of landscape very beanti- ful. At all times of the day in winter the harbor is full of life. Horse racing, sleigh driving, country people coming to town with teams, loads of hey moving, skating going going on and ice-boats sailing about, are continually to be seen. By the way, if the hotel is built on the Douse property a continual open air rink for skating and curling on the harbor, with a low fence against the prevailing wind, could easily be kept in good condition bya stream of fresh water from one of the street hydrants.

Port La Jol.

The Staniecy at the Capes, Six,—In connection with the winter mail service, might it not be well to con- sider the advisability of having the Stanley run between Cape Tormentine and Cape Traverse. A large amount of money has been expended upon piers at these points,

expenditure. It is true that Cape Traveree pier needs an extension befure it can be utilized to any extent in connec- tion with a mai! service by the Stanly at that place during the winter months; but the amount necessary to build such an ex- tension is small when compared with the benefit which might be derived there- from

In the absence of a tunnel, or until such time as one is built, the Stanley might be made to perform a service much more valuable than we can vutherwise have. There can be no question about its being easier for the ship, other conditions being eqasl, to run a distance of nine m les than it is to run one of forty miles. There is not « day in winter that the tide in the straits dues not cause the ice to part at the capes, and anyone who has seen the Stauley at work in the ice fields kaows that an epening—no matter how slight—is all that Captain Finlayson needs to sail his ship with certainty and safety.

The i e boat service might also be in con- nectiun with the Stanley, and in case of failure of the ship to reach either shore. the distance remaining to convey mails and

Until the piers are satisfactorily com-

pleted, the board ice could be made to do

duty as adock. Ice-tields ia the guif have

served this purpose many times in the past

without in any way endangering the ship

or those on board. The board ice, being

stationary, would be safer‘snd more desir-

abie for such a purpose than moving fields

like those which have been used. In time of open water, or of lolly, or of small ice-

fields, the trips could be made in from one to two hours at most; and, if necessary for the accommodation of shippers, more than one return trip could be made in a day, and all advantages of stage and railway connec- tion would be assured .

Of course, some objections to such a change might bs expected from the inhab- itants of Pictou, who are beginning to look upon the Stanley as their own, although their part in fulfilment of the terms of union with this Province is very small in

deed. Pictou is not, and from its situ- ation never can be, a point at which winter communication can be successfully maia-

tained. At any time, when drift ice is to be found in the gulf or straits, a northeast wind causes it to lodge in and so competely close up Pictou harbor, that no ship ever built can enter or leave it. As long 4s no change of wind takes place this blockade continues, although, once clear of it, open water may be seen from there to George- town. At the Capes this could never occur, because no point exists beyond the board ice to hold the running ice of the straits, and the current is sufliciently strong to prevent the existence of a complete jam for avy length of time. os

T Fuilerton, of Calvin church, St. John was laid on the table by the Rev. Divid Sutherlaad, who had moderated inthe call. The Presbytery sustained the call and ordered that it be transmitted to the St. John Presbytery. A call to the Rev. J. G. Cameron, from the congregation of Acadia, Colchester County, N. 8., was received. The call being placed in the hands of the Rev. Mr. Cameron, it was respectfully de- clined, to the great satisfaction of the Pres bytery as well as of the c ngregation to which he has ministered so long and so ac- ceptably. Representatives from the con- gragat.on of Tryon and Bonshaw appeared before the Presbytery with reference to 4 petition affecting their interests, which they wished the vourt to consider. The matter will come up for coasideration at the next meeting. The clerk was request- ed to take the pastoral] oversight of Bon- shaw.
